camer/video not working

I just updated my nexus one to android 2.2 (popup asked me to install). After the installation, I found my camera/video function quick working. It seems I can take picture or video, but when I went to Gallery to view, there are nothing in there and the screen shown partial blurry and partial black. When I stay on the screen with camera and gallery icon shown, on top of the screen said "No connection". I am not sure what the connection it is looking for? Any suggestion? Thank you.

Are you synching with Picasa? That may be the connection problem. Maybe unchecking the sync for that and restarting your phone will help. If you can see the gallery OK then reconnect with Picasa. You might need to clear the cache, too under manage applications.

After that, hit the back arrow and from the Settings menu, select Application settings
Then select Manage applications
From the tabs across the top, select All
Slide down until you see Gallery, select that
Look for Cache and select Clear cache, you may need to clear data too so it can rebuild the thumbnails and re-index your pics.

Once back at the home screen, I would go ahead and reboot the phone and then check your gallery. Depending on how many pictures you have on your SD card, it may take a few minutes to re-index and re-create the thumbs, so give it a little time. Once you see those pictures, go back to where you unchecked the Picasa sync and re-check it if you want those pictures. Again, you may have to wait while it adds those pictures, so just give it time.

Apparently it poses a lot of problems with the gallery. If you do, try putting your gallery on the 'ignore list' (Do this by long pressing gallery when you bring up the Kill tasks or whatever thing). I had a similar problem, did this, rebooted and voila.
As for the picasa stuff, I don't know, sorry :P
